Actually, this list hit my notebook so long ago that Shovel Knight wasn’t even released then. I did have a lot of “Dad” games (left for Dad was the one that I shortlisted) – but they’re not particularly evocative to draw…

But indie classics are a good idea. I hadn’t thought of SUPER MAT BOY until just now. or SUPER EAT BOY either… although “the maw” did that game idea pretty well.
